作词 : D.T. Gentry 作曲 : D.T. Gentry From Morenci, Arizona where the copper mines glow I could see Clifton in the canyon below In Clifton lived Rosey, we danced and we dined On the money I made in the open pit mine
I loved my sweet Rosey and she loved me too There was nothin' for Rosey that I wouldn't do Her hugs and her kisses they were something divine Gave me reason for working the open pit mine
While I was out walking with my Rosey one day We passed a store window with rings on display I bought those she wanted How they really did shine Spent the money I saved from that open pit mine
Her love would bring heartbreak that I would soon learn 'Cause she would two-time me when my back was turned Rosey would go dancing and drink the red wine While I worked like a slave in that open pit mine
One night I caught Rosey on her rendezvous She was hugging and kissing with somebody new It was there that I shot her while their arms were entwined Then I buried her deep in that open pit mine
I took a look at my future and what did I see? There was nothin' but trouble a-waiting for me But on the sun's next rising I'll be satisfied 'Cause they'll find me there sleeping by my sweet Rosey's side
